Oh the Life!

Sledding in a Winter Wonderland
So, the children finally convinced me to go sledding with them. We had an absolute blast! Caleb pulled us behind the six-wheeler for some fun rides. (Even the dogs had a great time!)
Enjoy the pics.

Hudson and Maggie on one sled and Abbi and Weston on the other.

Bandit right there with them.

"The Jump"

I had heard about the "jump" and now I get to see it in real life but chose to only watch. I did not need to actually experience it.

Caleb getting some air.

Here they come.

Oh my goodness! That is me in the green coat. Yes, I did it! Wow! Look at me go.

The Grand Finale...

Going "free" down Papa's Road

(the name for a section of the road to the camp)

Recap of this experience:

Think about the dynamics of six people, all different ages, going out to do the same thing, with different ideas and different needs. Potential for a disaster. I was blessed by what I witnessed of my children. I had a great time sledding and watching them sled but I think more than anything I enjoyed watching my children make things work for each other. They were focused on the needs of others and not themselves. I was so blessed!!
